Value Collection MT32998929 Square End Mill 3/8 in 4 Flute

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION MT32998929 is a solid carbide square end mill designed for precision milling operations in metal, composites, and other hard materials. It features a 3/8 inch diameter with four flutes and a 1 inch length of cut, making it well suited for slotting, profiling, and peripheral milling. The 30-degree helix angle promotes efficient chip evacuation and reduces cutting forces. Manufactured from submicron carbide grade material, this end mill delivers the hardness and edge retention that machining professionals require in production environments. The bright uncoated finish makes it easy to inspect for wear.

This end mill is intended for use in CNC machining centers, manual mills, and other milling setups where a 3/8 inch straight shank tool holder or collet is used. It is a single-end, right-hand cut tool with right-hand flutes. The 2.5 inch overall length and 1 inch length of cut make it appropriate for moderate-depth cavities and general-purpose milling tasks in job shop and production settings. Machinists and tool room professionals working with aluminum, steel, and similar materials will find it suitable for standard roughing and finishing passes.

Key Features

• Solid carbide construction from submicron material grade for high hardness and wear resistance
• Four-flute, right-hand spiral design for efficient chip removal in slotting and profiling
• 30-degree helix angle reduces cutting forces and improves surface finish
• Centercutting geometry allows plunge milling entry
• Bright uncoated finish suitable for use with or without coolant on a wide range of materials
• Straight shank at 3/8 inch diameter fits standard collets and end mill holders

Compatibility

Designed as a standard 3/8 inch straight-shank square end mill compatible with collet chucks, end mill holders, and other tool holders accepting a 3/8 inch shank in milling machines and CNC machining centers.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified machinist following the machine tool manufacturer guidelines. Ensure the spindle is fully stopped and the machine is powered down before changing tooling. Use the appropriate collet or end mill holder torqued to the tool holder manufacturer specification. Inspect the shank and collet bore for chips or debris before seating the tool to avoid runout.
